Australian Shepherd puppies and dogs in Happy Valley, Oregon

Biscuit is a special dog, yearning for her perfect home! She’s fostered by her former owners sister. If you’re a single guy or gal, or a couple looking for a dog to baby, she’s your match! She’s a great hiking/walking companion, and is always up for adventure. She’d work best in a detached home setting, with a fenced yard. Ideally you have a nice park or two nearby for long walks. Bonus points if you work from home or have a flexible schedule to take her on her morning/afternoon walks. Here are her own words: I’m crate-trained, but honestly, I’d love to snuggle at your feet! I love to play with stuffed squeaky toys, and tug-of-war! I’m longing for someone who can spoil me! I’ll repay you in snuggles! I’m super SMART! I take to training very well! I’ve been getting better with my leash reactivity, and I do ok with recall. Let’s do more training together! I can get along with other dogs, but I’d likely do better being the only dog in a home! I want my food/treats to myself!

We got Mori from a friend of a friend down on the California coast near Half Moon Bay. She was only 8 weeks old and such a cutie! Being the runt of the litter she was the last one of her siblings that found a home with us. Now she is 7months old and looking for a home that can manage her high energy! She loves playing fetch, going on walks or and has been great playing with our little kids. Mori has been having some play dates with some dogs in our neighborhood and have found a few good friends. Unfortunately Mori won't have a home in a couple months. We would love for her to find a loving, comfortable home before we have to sell our home and move on. Over time Mori has chewed away at our hearts and it pains us all that we cant find a way to keep her in our family. Mori is energetic, playful, loving, and protective around strangers (which we loved with our little kids), she can be vocal when she is hungry, bored or needs to go outside to relieve herself.

Miley Cyrus lived as a mother dog who was used for breeding. She was roaming the streets when she asked the right people for help. Eager to please, Miley has completed dog training at the head of her class. As a result of her past experiences, she is mistrusting of men and loud noises. She is not aggressive, but rather simply prefers to be alone. If you are kind and gentle, and have the patience to earn her trust, Miley Cyrus might be your girl.

Meet Bob Tail Bear! He is an adorable 10 -12-week-old puppy, and we think he may be an Australian Shepherd / Lab mix; his cute little nub tail gives him some Aussie Character! Watch Bob Tail's video here: https://youtube.com/shorts/5qAQLi6PATk?si=MrHsdHAMO1F1eR7U Bob Tail Bear is playful, sweet, curious, and cuddly. He loves to play and then take lots of naps. Eat, sleep, play, repeat - such is puppy life! He loves to play with toys and the bigger dogs in his foster home. He even tries to play with the cranky cat! Bob Tail Bear is still young, so he will need a family that can commit to training, socialization, and all the dedication puppyhood requires. His new family will need to continue with potty and crate training and daily exercise. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy. When old enough, they will be perfect for going on walks and hikes or showing off around your neighborhood. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend!

Supremely intelligent and brimming with energy. This highly intelligent, graceful dog is born with an instinct to work and responds extremely well to training, which is why they are often used as a mountain-rescue or sniffer dog. Border Collies make loyal, faithful pets that thrive on company and stimulation.
